The match was held in Liverpool home ground named Anfield.<\/p>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<p>Manchester City dictated the first half by breaking into Liverpool defence but just couldn\u2019t get enough to score, whereas Liverpool was far more defensive and sloppy with the ball<\/p>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">In the second half, Liverpool came out with fire as they started attacking and attempted a shot after the 50th minute but still couldn\u2019t budge the City\u2019s defence, finally at 57th-minute, Salah skillfully loops it over the defender from the left side and finds cutting Mane who finished it with ease.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We thought it might be \ud83d\ude09 Sensational yet again. <\/p>\n<p>An incredible goal and an assist for <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MoSalah?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@MoSalah<\/a>, who is your Player of the Match!  <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LIVMCI?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#LIVMCI<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/hAAeR52lku\">pic.twitter.com\/hAAeR52lku<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Liverpool FC (@LFC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LFC\/status\/1444723589362634761?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 3, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">Then the blue boys answered back by a precise finish by Foden assisted by a great Gabriel Jesus run. Salah then went on to return the favour with a masterclass goal after taking on 4 defences and then finish it from his weaker foot. It was a wonderful strike by Mohammad Salah. What a game this was as another equaliser was struck by now De Bruyne which was deflected by Joel Matip with just 9 minutes left on the clock. Both teams tried their best to score another goal to earn those 3 points but just could not get over the top. This could be one of the games game this season as agreed by the match Commentators.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An exciting match between two of the Premier League giants which ended in a draw with spectacular performance by Salah and Foden<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":220,"featured_media":33406,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[2254,2793,2076,1939,2604,220,1762,996],"class_list":["post-10930","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football","tag-anfield","tag-foden","tag-gabriel-jesus","tag-kevin-de-bruyne","tag-liverpool-fc","tag-manchester-city-f-c","tag-mane","tag-mohamad-salah"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10930","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/220"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10930"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10930\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/33406"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10930"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10930"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10930"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
